The Full Form of RHP is‍ Right Handed Pitcher.

A good right-handed pitcher will usually pitch off of their fastball. Once the “fastball for a strike” is established, the pitcher will work to keep hitters off balance by mixing speeds and zones.

This means starting hitters off with an off-speed or breaking ball pitch to start of an at-bat or when a hitter has count leverage.

If a RHP can throw their secondary pitch for a strike, a hitter’s only real option is to cut the plate in half and try to drive pitches to the opposite field.

Good pitching usually beats good hitting. This is why the approach to hitting is so important.

If you’re facing a RHP who is consistently throwing off-speed or breaking ball pitches in fastball counts, you need to make the right adjustment, quickly.
